Sitting at home (ah unemployment) refreshing the Kovy thread after reading that Grossman had baited the trap.

Quail Ridge golf center. Just shot 2 under on the pitch-n-putt, was returning to my friends car to swap the 56/putter for a driver and 6 iron, decided to check my phone and had 13 "Kovi to Devils" texts. The first one i read, my ranger-fan-cousin, said "Kovalfvck to dirty jerzee", I almost flipped out. Was so excited I didn't hit a single good shot on the range.


I was at Green Knoll Golf Center on the 2nd hole of pitch-n-putt. I got the text, checked Twitter to confirm, and ran across the green towards my buddy (also huge Devils fan) while screaming at the top of my lungs. After that, I hit my putt 4 feet past the hole.

I was in school taking a test, finished it and found out Kolvy was a Devil :) :) :)
Stationed in Section 114, along with my friend who became a STH for 10-11. My sister got 1/2 season tickets after Kovy signed! Now she can enjoy that Kovy jersey often. woohoo!

Is we have Kovy? :)

I was somewhere in the middle of PA driving on Route 80 going to OH. Got a txt from ESPN and nearly drove of the road I was going to crazy.

I was in Kent, OH when I got the veto txt. First words were "Are you kidding! Go f--k yourself Bettman!!!"

When he signed: Putting exhaust pipes away at work...first text was from my brother and I thought it was a joke since he is a Ranger fan...then my phone blew up from Devil fans.

When the NHL rejected: Driving back from roller hockey and getting dinner with my brother...once again I thought he was joking until he showed me his phone that had all the legit tweets on it.

TSN website for my daily check. I was at work and saw the headline "Kovalchuk remains a Devil"...excitement and "head scratching" ensued as I couldn't believe Lamoriello finally signed someone for more money that it would take to purchase a Panera Bread sandwich... :rofl:

I stayed home from work sick on Monday and was trying to sleep when I got repeatedly texted about the Kovy signing.

I was dead tired from being unable to sleep the day before so I tried to go to bed early last night and kept getting awoken with texts saying the contract was rejected.

Maybe when I go to bed tonight, I'll get texts saying Bettman was just kidding and Kovalchuk's deal is A-OK?
